Ronnie and I grew up together in Parkvillage with freedom that children don't enjoy today. Trick or treating without parents. Playing hide and seek under the street lights, walking to school around the lake, up over the park to first grade and later...climbing the hill to 7th.
We tried smoking straws and starting a snowball business, both unsuccessful. As time would have it, our paths took us elsewhere, but I cherish ever moment I had with that happy, giggling childhood friend, Ronnie.
